Full Description

Local historian and popular speaker Jim Geraghty will show images and share his research into the settling of the Mendenhall Valley. This is a free event with coffee generously provided by Heritage Coffee Company.

Goggle ?Mendenhall Valley? or hunt in the public library and not much turns up that talks about the people and events that shaped the area that today is home to the majority of Juneau?s population. Jim?s stories and images of local history are always fascinating and compelling due to his passion for documenting and preserving local history and sharing it with others.
